Chapter 013 - Dream Chalcedony
"Let's go."
Yoko, who had already gotten into the car, tapped on the steering wheel to urge.
Cao Yi withdrew his gaze, pulled open the door and got into the car.
A sound of a vehicle starting rang out, the car under the driving of Yoko drove away from the Taj Mahal Pierre Hotel that towered in the night.
Don't look at Yoko's brashness, but she drove quite steadily. On the road, they encountered some provocations from drag racing parties, all of which they ignored.
"Taoist Master, that Purple Dragon King you shot, it's called Jade in China, right?"
Yoko suddenly said.
Cao Yi glanced at the password box next to his feet (Christie's Auction House gave him a password box for the safety of the auction items) and nodded: "Not bad"
"I can't imagine that Taoist Master has a hobby of collecting jadeite, I think Taoist Master is an expert in this area."
At the moment, in Yoko's eyes, Cao Yi had merged with a jade collector.
In her opinion, Cao Yi was not a tycoon, it was impossible for him to have nothing to do and spend millions of dollars on something that could not be lived in or eaten.
"No."
Cao Yi denied it.
Although once upon a time he had read some novels about jadeite, Cao Yi is still like most people, only a vague concept of jadeite, in addition to knowing that jadeite is a hard jade, and the traditional Chinese jadeite is not the same as the soft jade, other things such as, pit, seed, color, water, bean seed, water seed, glass seed, emperor green, a kind of jadeite expertise, completely do not know. Even if that day encountered the old pit species full of pine flowers python belt, will only be treated as a piece of unusual stone.
"No."
Yoko's expression was puzzled, but did not ask further, she is not a person who breaks the pot to the end.
Soon, the sedan left Manhattan, which is known as the world's financial anointed place, in the night.
When passing by a large supermarket, Cao Yi specially went in to purchase some mineral water, canned food, sausages, cookies and bread.
As his rations for the roaring days during the time he was back in China.
Arriving at the Taoist temple, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
Yoko assisted Cao Yi in carrying the things he bought off the car and left.
Cao Yi took out the key, opened the door of the Taoist temple and shouted, "Roaring Sky"
There was no response, the entire Taoist temple was quiet.
It can't be taken away by thieves.
Cao Yi's heart tightened.
With this lazy and indifferent dead dog, living together for a few months, more or less has produced some feelings.
God Hall, no.
Thatched toilet, no, Roaring Sky is a dog that does not eat shit.
Sundry room, no.
Room for all kinds of Taoist supplies, no.
The room where he rests, no.
There is only one place left.
Cao Yi came to the room where his master lived, pushed open the door, picked up the flashlight on the table by the door and shone it over, and was instantly filled with black lines.
Only to see Roaring Sky lying on his side like a human, his black and white furry head poking out of the bed, a piece of hala was flowing out of his mouth.
He himself had turned around in the Taoist temple and made such a big commotion, this guy was actually still sleeping so soundly.
"Cough cough ......"
Cao Yi deliberately coughed loudly a few times.
Roaring Sky opened his eyes, looked at Cao Yi, his new master, turned his head, and continued to sleep.
Cao Yi: "......"
Doesn't get up does it!
Cao Yi left the room and in a short while, carried back several large bags, took out a bag of sausages from it, peeled it open, and spun it around Roaring Sky's mouth.
The unique flavor of the sausage wafted into the air.
But in a few seconds, the guy seemed to come to life, his body rolled over and didn't get up.
The long-term lazy life had made it lose the flexibility that a dog should have.
It rolled over once more.
It barely succeeded, although the posture was a bit ugly.
It opened its mouth and bit off half a sausage in one bite, wolfing it down.
"I really don't know what's the point of raising a lazy bastard like you. Thieves come in and walk away with a smile on their face."
After Cao Yi finished, he didn't have the heart to unwrap a few breads in a bag, threw them on the ground, and walked away.
Returning to his room.
Cao Yi opened the safe, took out the box containing the Purple Dragon King and opened it.
A blinding purple color came into view, and the light from the flashlight shone on it, radiating a mysterious, demonic deep purple luster.
If a young woman was here, she would only scream.
Cao Yi reached out and picked it up, resting it in his hand with a mesmerized look on his face.
Good-looking jade was not only liked by women, but also by men.
"A jadeite worth millions of dollars, it's a shame to break it like this."
Cao Yi muttered to himself, with a few moments of reluctance in his eyes.
"Ding! It is detected that the host has obtained the Purple Dragon King, the steps to extract the chalcedony inside the Purple Dragon King are as follows ......"
A message entered his mind, and Cao Yi's face revealed a dazed look.
This chalcedony was not the same as the traditional meaning of chalcedony, it was a kind of essence substance hidden in part of the jade, normally, it was solid and couldn't be seen to be any different from jade. When blood tainted with aura dripped on it, it would reveal itself.
After looking at the beautifully bubbling Purple Dragon King for a while longer, Cao Yi gritted his teeth and put it down, found a needle for sewing clothes, probed his left index finger, pricked the tip, squeezed hard, and a drop of bright red blood fell onto the Purple Dragon King.
For one second, two seconds, no mutation occurred on the Purple Dragon King.
Just as Cao Yi was confused, the Purple Dragon King shook, then the jade inside began to melt.
"It's starting."
Cao Yi squeezed out a little more blood.
The jade inside the Purple Dragon King melted at a faster rate.
The purple light that refracted out was even more thrilling.
With ten drops in a row, half a fist-sized amount of water appeared inside the Purple Dragon King.
Cao Yi sighed lightly, cupped up the Purple Dragon King, placed it in the basin, raised his palm and slammed it down.
Cao Yi who had been transformed by the Golden Dan, how terrifying was his power, the Purple Dragon King which was not very sturdy, cracked into a shocking seven or eight pieces, the chalcedony with a faint purple color flowed out, just enough to cover the bottom of the basin.
Cao Yi took a deep breath, and a thick aura mixed with coldness entered his nostrils, making him uncomfortable and wanting to faint.
"This is the earthy, yin aura, it's really extraordinary."
Cao Yi shook his head, picked up the broken pieces of the Purple Dragon King, found a bottle and poured the chalcedony from the basin into it.
Looking at the chalcedony that only took up a quarter of the bottle, Cao Yi's brow furrowed, with such a small amount, it wouldn't take long at all.
At this time, a gurgling sound rang out.
He had been busy all night and hadn't eaten.
Cao Yi took out two bags of bread from the food bag and a bottle of mineral water for dinner.
Somehow, a sense of vertigo hit him.
Cao Yi yawned and went to bed.
The long first day of traveling through the country ended just like that.
The next day, Cao Yi woke up, ate breakfast, and started the preparations before the trip.
Unpacking the bread, ham sausages, and cookies that were packed in bags, and pouring the water from the mineral water into a few water basins.
Put the first book of the talisman book, the bottle with chalcedony, the talisman, the brush, the yellow paper, the vermilion sand in the canvas bag with the eight trigrams of yin and yang pattern.
Around nine in the morning, Mark drove to the Taoist temple.
"Go."
Cao Yi, who had been waiting for a long time, got into the car and closed the door.
An engine sound rang out and the car drove away from the Taoist temple hidden in the woods.
